VN engine

I though I could waste some time trying to make a visual novel engine on my own. So I'm looking for a OO language that has a decent 2D graphics library.

Tried Squeak yesterday. Slow as fuck and the morphs don't update unless you interact with them.

Any recommendations?

/prog/ is tsundere for C++.
Maybe. Have you ever fallen head over heels with a girl only to get stuck in the friend zone for like a year, and then find out she's secretly a Southern Baptist preop transboy obsessed with the shitty local emo bands in all their tonedeaf glory? That's what happens to people who use C++. That's what's going to happen to you. Enjoy it while the illusion lasts!
